Santacruz Silver Mining reports fatality at Tres Amigos mine in Bolivia
Tres Amigos mine, a part of the Caballo Blanco Group of mines, has resumed operations after it was shut down following the incident.
Barclays Capital said retail and institutional investors pulled out $8.2 billion from commodity investments in May, the most in eight months, reports Reuters:
“A ‘perfect storm’ of downgrades, lackluster macroeconomic data and the ongoing eurozone debt crisis transformed a retreat by investors into something approaching a stampede during May, evoking memories of 2008,” Barclays said in a research report.
“The speed and extent of recent commodity price falls suggest market participants are anticipating a severe deterioration in the macroeconomic outlook,” the bank said.
